I decided to write up some random thoughts as I wait for Big D to come to bed (what can I say, this is the story of my life!).*Ty started preschool today. He had an accident, and he cried while they changed him. As he retells the the story he says that he cried and kept asking why! * I don't know whey my 30 year old husband will ever figure out he needs to change his ways until my 3 year old learns not to touch stuff that he shouldn't.*Just found out that litte D had his recess revoked today for talking in the cafeteria...even though he was done with lunch. Well this is the story he gave me so I will ask the teacher tomorrow, because if his story is accurate, come on who makes a child be quiet during lunch. I know I never go to lunch at work unless I have someone to share it with).*This new teaching job is really trying my patience, but I love it. And I love my students.*I had been praying for quite some time to be truly inspired...I felt like a wasn't going anywhere. Well church was amazing on Sunday and I have some inspiration as to were I want to go. * I guess this is it for now...

As the years have gone by, Daniel has certainly gotten a tab better about remembering about holidays, birthdays, and special occasions before the day of! The night before Valentine's day he was getting the kids into bed and for some reason I thought he was coming to bed too. I was so tired that I fell asleep before realizing that he didn't. He decided to stay up and he and my brother made chocolate covered strawberries, tangerines, and vanilla wafers. He even delicately placed them around one of my nicer plates. He came to bed at 3am, don't feel too sorry for him. He finished at one and decided to play games until 3! His gift was thoughtful and simple! He didn't spend more money than it cost to buy the strawberries! We had the cookies, the tangerines, and he used chocolate chips! I love this man! We have been together almost 7 years and the last couple have been very challenging...VERY challenging. But because of the trials we have had in these last couple of years, I can TRULY say that I have fallen in love with him again and that I love him more today than I ever have!And Those of you wondering what I got him for Valentine's Day...lets just say that my gift was not as thought out and simple. It was what he wanted though!

Little D brought me a cupcake from school as a Valentine's gift, with half the frosting licked off! And he also made me a beautiful card at church with tons of purple hearts because it is my favorite color! I am truly blessed to have suck a wonderful family! I love them so much and I cannot wait for it to grow!

Good Quotes To Share

"The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than failures, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness, or skill. It will make or break a company...a church...a home. The remarkable thing is we have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude...I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% how I react to it. And so it is with you...we are in charge of our attitudes." - Charles Swindoll
